[SOLVED]: Gant Icon Theme

#1 Post by Artim »

Hi,
I downloaded a very cool looking icon set from gnome-look.org but it's a zip file. Do I need to convert it to a .deb file (and if so, how do I do that) or can it be added as is? I'm unfamiliar with doing zip in Linux. Computer info below:

Hello,
Right click the downloaded zip file and choose ""extract here""..
Then copy the extracted file into usr/share/icons...
This has to be done as root..

I believe you replied to my post on facebook.

You can install ocs-url from our repos, then in the Files tab on that page, choose "Install" instead of download. Ocs-url will download that zip, then extract and install it in your home folder, not system-wide. Follow maximus' directions to install for all users if that's your preference.
MXPI = MX Package Installer
QSI = Quick System Info from menu
The MX Test repository is mostly backports; not the same as Debian testing
